Not even a week into 2021 and the previously unthinkable has happened once more: hundreds of pro-Trump protestors, clad in MAGA hats and waving Donald Trump flags, force their way into the US Capitol building. Some even went as far as barging into the office of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, casually taking pictures with their feet on her desk and her workspace ruined. 



But it could happen here in the Philippines? And what are the long term consequences on US politics?

Guest: UP Law student Kobe, on the show for thee 2nd time and once again providing his insights on the craziest of times 

If you've ever thought about migrating, this episode is for you. The 8th episode of Inordinary Things guests Koby, who moved from the Philippines to California nearly two years ago. If you've ever wondered about the differences between American and Filipino culture, the loneliness of moving to another country, and the experience of finding yourself in a foreign land then this episode is for you.  

Episode 7's guest is Patrick, a master's student with a special focus and interest on international politics. This episode has it all: ruminations on what the new world order may look like post-COVID, Biden vs Trump, Gaddhafi, the Duterte administration, and the difference between a statesman and a politician. 

Politics is too broad a topic to limit to just one episode. In episode 6 of the Inordinary Things podcast, the show tackles the act of "getting into" politics, the flaws in the Philippine voting system, the rigors of studying law, why Senators have more power than Congressmen/women, and a whole lot more. Special thanks to Kobe for guesting. 

"Let's not go there."



This is the all-too common reply when someone wants to bring up politics in casual conversation, but why shouldn't we? In this episode, we'll talk politics in general: getting into it, Trump's America, Duterte's Philippines, and so much more. Guest: Enzo Manzano
